Diving spot in front of Pinzon - Pinzón

Galapagos Islands

Overview

Pinzon Island was named after the two brothers, Martín Alonso and Vicente Yáñez Pinzon, who sailed with Christopher Columbus in search of the new world, as captains of the well-known ships Pinta and Nina. Being surrounded by deep waters, it makes this spot perfect for diving, suitable for all levels. For beginners, the calm bay will allow them to encounter and swim with a diversity of tropical fish, sea lions and green turtles. A steep drop-off wall will present a challenge for the more experienced divers, where they can see various shark species, rays, lobsters and even seahorses.
